  • CIT 485: Network Forensics
    CIT 485/585 Network Forensics The primary objective of this assignment is to learn a process for investigating security incidents and to give students practice analyzing such an incident using captured network data. 1S TUDENT LEARNING OUTCOMES 1. Describe digital evidence and how the type of legal dispute affects evidence used to resolve it. 2. Describe the steps of the OSCAR network forensics methodology. 3. Identify and decode protocols used on non-standard ports. 4. Investigate suspicious network data for malicious activity. 2D IGITAL EVIDENCE Digital evidence refers to any data collected in digital form from any computer, whether that computer is a desktop, mobile device, game console, printer, or IoT device. A primary goal of digital forensics is ensuring evidence integrity, the preservation of evidence in its original form. Evidence integrity is supported by a chain of custody, a set of documentation that describes the acquisition, copying, and analysis of digital evidence. As analysis of digital data often changes that data (reading a file will not modify the file itself but will change the last accessed time on the file), cryptographic checksums such as SHA-256 are often used to ensure that copies of digital evidence match the original evidence. Details of digital evidence handling are discussed in CIT 430: Computer Forensics. Digital evidence in a criminal case is returned through an inventory of items take through a search warrant. Any devices that may contain an embedded computer can contain digital evidence. Defense attorneys can request an invetory of items and obtain forensic copies of the data from those devices.

  • Network Forensics
    Network Forensics Michael Sonntag Institute of Networks and Security What is it? Evidence taken from the “network” In practice this means today the Internet (or LAN) In special cases: Telecommunication networks (as long as they are not yet changed to VoIP!) Typically not available “after the fact” Requires suspicions and preparation in advance Copying the communication content At the source (=within the suspects computer): “Online search” This could also be a webserver, e.g. if it contains illegal content “Source” does NOT mean that this is the client/initiator of communication/… At the destination: See some part of the traffic Only if unavoidable or the only interesting part Somewhere on the way of the (all?) traffic: ISP, physically tapping the wires, home routers etc. Network Forensics 2 Problems of network forensics “So you have copied some Internet traffic – but how is it linked to the suspect?” The IP addresses involved must be tied to individual persons This might be easy (location of copying) or very hard “When did it take place?” Packet captures typically have only relative timestamps But there may be lots of timestamps in the actual traffic! As supporting evidence to some external documentation “Is it unchanged?” These are merely packets; their content can be changed Although it is possible to check e.g. checksums, this is a lot of work and normally not done Treat as any other digital evidence Hash value + Chain of Custody; work on copies only Network Forensics 3 Scenario Suspect: Mallory Malison; released

  • CIT 485: Exploit Kits
    CIT 485/585 Exploit Kits The primary objective of this assignment is to learn how exploit kits act to compromise victims and how such malware attempts to hide itself. This lesson comes with a set of files containing captured packets in either the PCAP or PCAPNG formats. Sections of the lesson will refer to the appropriate packet capture files to use by name. Use the references in the References section at the bottom of the lesson when needed to answer questions about the protocols in the lesson. STUDENT LEARNING OUTCOMES 1. Identify malware activity in captured network traffic. 2. Extract files transferred over HTTP. 3. Determine if files are malicious using local and cloud anti-malware tools. INTRODUCTION The objective of this assignment is to learn how to use network data to detect and respond to malware attacks. We will use PCAP tools like Wireshark, the snort IDS, and a two new tools: Clam AV and justniffer. To install ClamAV, run the following commands on your Kali VM. # apt-get update # apt-get install clamav # freshclam Clam AV is a free anti-virus program, which we can use to determine whether executables found in network traffic are malware or not. In addition to ClamAV, we can upload extracted files (or entire pcap files) to VirusTotal to evaluate files using dozens of anti-virus programs. Note that VirusTotal archives uploaded files, so the site should only be used with files that do not contain confidential or sensitive information. Uploading malware executables or example PCAPs from this assignment is fine. Packet captures from corporate networks typically need to have data removed or altered to avoid giving away confidential data and non-confidential but still sensitive data like IP addresses.

    PCAP Command-Line Madness! Hal Pomeranz / [email protected] / @hal_pomeranz tcpdump You can use it to capture some packets tcpdump –n –i ens0 –w full-packets.pcap Or maybe just the packet headers tcpdump –n –i ens0 –s 160 –w headers-only.pcap But did you know? You can capture a collection of PCAP files tcpdump –n –i ens0 –w mypcap –C 1000 –W 7 tcpdump –n –i ens0 –w mypcap-%j –G 86400 –W 14 You can filter large PCAPs into smaller chunks tcpdump –n –r large.pcap –w dns.pcap 'port 53' tcpdump –n –r large.pcap –w smb.pcap 'tcp and port 445' tshark All the filtering power of Wireshark Only output the fields you want It's like AWK for packets! tshark -n -r example.pcap -Y http.request -T fields -e frame.time -e ip.src -e http.request.method -e http.host -e http.request.uri -e http.user_agent -e http.referer Ugh!
